Dry Roasted Chicken Wings
This is an adaptation of Chef Michael Smith’s recipe for roasted wings. We’ve all had a few too many and downed a few too many wings! This recipe definitely makes those yummy wings less naughty.
Dry Roasted Chicken Wings
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 1 pound 1x
Description
Everything delicious about crispy, spicy wings, only healthier because they’re baked!
Ingredients
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp chili powder
½ tsp dried thyme
¼ tsp pepper
1 lb wings/10 wings
Instructions
Combine all dry ingredients together.
Coat the wings in the rub; this part takes some time. Eventually the chicken will absorb all of the rub, just keep mixing them every little while until all of the dry rub is gone; about 45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 425.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and then lay a roasting rack on top of the baking sheet.
Place the wings evenly on the roasting rack.
Roast the wings for 30 – 35 minutes until the cornstarch is no longer visible and the wings are golden.
Notes
- This is a perfect place to play around with different spices and herbs.
- These are really yummy and Mike loves them!

Hi there, omg, when I first saw this on foodgakwer, I knew, I just knew in my heart that it had to be made for Sunday lunch…
And of course – I did – instead of using chicken wings, I cut chicken breasts into “biggish” pieces and smothered it in this coating…
I’m pregnant and decided I would use a little bit of olive oil …
They were delicious! mmm…
I’d just thought I’d let you know though, that your website is taking horribly long to load 🙁 I was going to give up before getting a phone call and forgetting about it. It did load eventually but I’m worried other people will give up (like I was about to).

I’m really glad I decided to leave it open – it was totally fate and our Sunday lunch was incredible!
Thank you!
Thank you so much! Your variation sounds incredible too, I’m totally going to try it!
So sorry about the slow load 🙁 I updated something and now it’s slow and I’m so not a techy. Thanks for the tip!
I’m glad you enjoyed your lunch )
You should contact your web host and I’m sure they’d be happy to resolve it for you – I’ve bookmarked a ton of recipes from your site, so you definitely have a new fan <3
My fiance also loves you because he was " mmmmm-ing" every time he bit into the chicken! 🙂
